After looking into this, I realized it's already possible to skip checksum on creation. An example similar to the current `README.md`, note I only added `skip_checksum=True`: ```python from sigmf import...

It says in the docstring for that function that it is currently broken. I believe the intent was to retrieve a _vanilla_ metadata dictionary similar to how calling `sigmf.SigMFFile()` returns...

New PR removes this function and closes issue.

The extensions have been moved to [their own repository](https://github.com/sigmf/community-extensions), but yes we should probably have an example of how to implement an extension.

If we want this feature then I'll probably need to dive in and resolve these merge conflicts. Lately been spending free coding time on [AoC](https://adventofcode.com/).

As I close all outstanding PRs, this one has been open for more than a year. As such I'm going to break it up into multiple smaller PRs and use...

In my brain this will work like this(?): ```python # x is abc.wav, xyz.mp3, uvw.opus, qwe.flac import sigmf handle = sigmf.sigmffile.fromfile(x) # handle now has interpreted metadata from the file,...

> Ideally there would be a python script someone can run, providing their original format as input and it generates the SigMF files This is trivial by using the `entry_point`s...

For my own reference this can easily be done with our existing implementation using `tarfile.TarFile` which should allow `x.sigmf.gz`, `x.sigmf.bz2`, and `x.sigmf.xz`. To allow `x.sigmf.zip` I believe we would need...

Can we close this issue?
